Abstract
  • This study addresses women's experiences in higher education at Oregon Agricultural College between 1870 and 1916. The experiences of these women illustrate how they were affected by society's beliefs and values, and further, how their education encouraged them to develop skills necessary to transform their role in society. Education has been used to either maintain power structures or to transform a group's role in society. Education can be used as a tool to transform a group's role in society through the skills and opportunities obtained in learning. Women developed skills through their educational experiences. These experiences included academic studies, campus climate, extracurricular activities, and career opportunities. Through these activities these college women developed skills which they then used to expand their role in society.
